Ask Lemmy

The same life but without the pressure of a job.

Make stuffed animals and donate them to hospitals, fire stations, and police stations

Organize town-wide scavenger hunts

Learn to cook good food and give it away to people who want some

Start a group that would teach people how to use a sewing machine.

Organize a bearded dragon rescue.

Trim people's hedges

Make videos to share all my knowledge with people for free

Go around pantsing people all day. Go so hard that it starts to feel like work. Then pants myself and end it all.

Probably mostly cooking, cleaning, going on adventures with the dog, playing music, and smoking extravagant amounts of weed

Open a non-profit primitive skills school. There are several of these skills that are rapidly dying and will likely be gone within a generation.

Become a blacksmith. I'd make all sorts of things.

And a welder. And a tool and die man.

I'd work with metal. And at some point I'd make a point to learn glass blowing because it's cool.

Learn shit.

I would take classes for stuff that actually interests me. And spend more time on hobbies. It's pretty obvious to me honestly. I don't understand how people get depressed and bored when they retire. It actually makes no sense to me. It's super common too. People feel like they "have no purpose" and absolutely crumble in retirement. It blows my mind. I feel like those people are super fucking boring and have no interests.

When all your needs are met, you help others with theirs.

I wish I could be a perpetual student attending college. And open a business that im passionate about.

Organise more and better LARPs

Exercise, drink wine, read more, and take tons of road trips.

Acting and singing. Studied Musical Theater in my twenties but couldn't see myself making a living at it.

I teach philosophy for a living these days.

I’d probably keep doing that, but less of it.

I’d also do a lot of writing.

Write sci fi novels and take care of stray cats

Start painting or some shit idk

Make music, perform music, make games, make movies, write small books and maybe draw pictures.

And then I would try out being a research attorney, being an EMT, a pilot, maybe working with NASA at some point and working for some government agency specializing in digital warfare.

People always assume if you had everything you would just sit at home and be lazy and never try anything. But from my experience you don't do that shit just because you're complacent, you do it because either you are way too stressed out to try out new stuff or you are in the middle of a depressive episode. Almost all people I know wouldn't be able to be lazy for more than 2 weeks, they would start making something.

I've been using the stress of needing to do things to keep me going. Without it I can't even imagine what I'd do.

Game (and probably stream myself doing so) a lot, get more exercise, volunteer a bit, probably contribute to open source projects a lot more

I would find work where I enjoy myself, and get a hobby of travelling the world and documenting cultures

Continue to work and fuck over poor people is very popular.

Travel, learn culture science theologie languages and so much more, teach

I would become an author and write plenty of fiction, poems, short stories. I might also get into game development. And if time permits, I would even pick up on astronomy.

Exactly what I am already doing. imagineering my top rated VR Theme Park and explore SE Asia and other parts of the world. Love both.

Write, write until I drop dead, with a smile in my face.

A podcast about the pre-columbian Americas which in all honesty would be a Hardcore History knockoff.

Volunteer, hands down. Local community stuff, create something akin to a co-op public broadcasting channel, spend time with my animals, bake and donate goods.

You know those people who restore old machinery and equipment? Locomotives, historic warships, industrial sites and so on? I'd absolutely be dedicating my day to that. There's something so satisfying about seeing that old stuff work, but they're always chronically understaffed and struggling to keep up with everything.

Oh, and write a novel.

Probably continue to work in transpiration with special needs school kids. My job isn't so much about money to me at this point I'm deeply emotionally invested.

Fish

Knowing me, do what I normally do in my free time, but hopefully actually get projects done.

I'd have plenty of time to play games, watch my shows, listen to CDs/music, hopefully finish a project I started on Wattpad or another program, and spend time learning coding to help with my NeoCities site and some other projects I wanna work on but don't know enough to make become a realiety.

First year I'd definitely visit all Formula 1 Grand Prix.

I would walk my dog, lift weights, study foreign languages, help my community

Do so much more with horses Video games Art
